Welcome to
Queanbeyan and District Preschool Association
Queanbeyan & District Preschool Association (QDPA) was formed in May 1950, when a public meeting was held to elect a management committee that would work towards setting up a preschool centre in Queanbeyan. The first Queanbeyan Preschool was constructed on an existing park in Queanbeyan named Harris Park and the preschool was opened in March 1952.
The Queanbeyan & District Preschool Association is made up of three preschools, all located within Queanbeyan NSW: Harris Park Preschool; Karabar Preschool; Waratah Preschool.
